Zovern's yacht had exploded!
Emyr saw the red gem's shimmering glow and the glistening gleam of a reddish bubble around the yacht. His arms embraced Ara against his body.
Noni touched her stomach while Zovern held her against his chest protectively.
"Captain, let's get out of here!" Emyr commanded swiftly.
The captains, who was motionless with shock, went into action quickly. They both ran to the control room fast. The other crews were lifting the anchor hurriedly.
Emyr excused himself with Ara. "Ara, please, stay here with Monville. I have to see that we are sailing now."
"Yes, Emyr! Please, take care!"
"I will," he nodded and kissed her deeply.
Ara had never been kissed like that by Emyr. She watched him until he was gone to the control room. She turned to Monville.
Monville
